I have breaking news to report to all of you.
You won’t believe it.
Alec Baldwin hosted SNL (and Steve Martin made a guest appearance, it was funny. Watch it here.). Again. I’m not complaining because I love me some Jack Donaghy, but really guys? Was Steve Martin busy? (Actually, he wasn’t…he helped Baldwin host his 16th episode during his opening monologue). Also, has Bridesmaids not taught the SNL writers anything? Women are a lot funnier, nicer, smarter, skinnier and overall just plain better than men.
Now with that bashing aside: let me show you some potential hosts that would not only get the job done, but have hosted less then three times or haven’t hosted at all. Seriously, that is extremely low by SNL standards. Read More »

Does it feel like every commercial for a new show this season is filled with estrogen? There are women all over my TV, and I must say that I’m loving it. I’m glad women who are actually funny are finally getting the the recognition they deserve. I loved the premiere of 2 Broke Girls, and not because I’m girl-biased (because I am a girl, duh), it was because it was an actually funny show.
I’m excited laugh my face off these season. These shows aren’t just going to be funny to women because women wrote them. I bet everyone will love Whitney and The New Girl, not just people with ovaries. TV’s women writers are ruling our screens this fall and you can meet them all right now.

Melissa McCarthy is absolutely hilarious. And luckily for me, she’s not going anywhere soon. I promise she will become your favorite actress soon (and if she doesn’t, she absolutely should…). She doesn’t seem to have too many boundaries, and that’s just how I like it. Here are ten reasons why Melissa will snag the top spot in our hearts. Read More »
Bridesmaids has been rocking it in theaters, earning over $100 million dollars. (Sidenote: loved it when my guy friends were pretty open about the tough decision of choosing between Bridesmaids and The Hangover Part II.) For pretty much the first time ever, the chic flick wasn’t a romcom but just a shout out to ladies, a story about friendship and general hilarity. Because the movie did so well in theaters, Hollywood apparently has a whole slew of women’s interest movies coming up that also won’t be classified as a romcom. Don’t get me wrong, How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days still ranks pretty high on my list of faves (Helloooo Mathew McConaughey) but there a lot of other issues that I’d like to see addressed.
1.) Pregnancy
Ridiculous cravings, outlandish tempers, and random bodily issues paired with baby showers, friends who drink without you and– oh yeah– that whole weight gain thing. Sounds like a recipe for success to me. Read More »

With Amy Poehler’s new sitcom, Parks and Recreation,MC premiering this month, and Tina Fey ruling Hollywood from atop a pile of Emmys, funny women are having a moment. rounds up the pioneers, the visionaries, and the chemically imbalanced to talk about how we got here.
Can a pretty girl be funny?
MARGARET CHO (Lifetime’s upcoming Drop Dead Diva): I remember seeing beautiful girls do stand-up, and it was a disaster every time. Not only were people not gonna listen to you because you’re a woman, if you’re good-looking, people really don’t want to listen to you.
SUSIE ESSMAN (Curb Your Enthusiasm): I’ve had to give some young female comics advice about what they’re wearing. Like, you can’t wear something too provocative — it’s too confusing to the men in the audience. They don’t know if they wanna f**k you or laugh at you.
JOAN RIVERS (comedian): Phyllis Diller used to dress like a fool. Totie Fields was a big fat woman. In the beginning, women comedians were all grotesque in one way or another. Read More »
